In the beginning lives the end Can the foe become your friend? Easy answers
there are none, though frightened grown ups search for one
In these broken bloody times We need more than TV smiles Behind the eyes the
door is tight shut Behind the makeup, just more makeup
When the pain is such, feelings turn to dust Are there tears enough to wash all
of us?
Chorus: I’m a sparrow in the storm Without your love to keep me warm Seasons
come and seasons go That you love me is all I need to know I’m a sparrow in the
storm Without your love to keep me warm Hold my hand and time will show That
you love me is all I need to know
The message written on our walls For the strong to climb: the weak must fall.
This is heresy I guess, but could the strong perhaps learn to live with less
When the pain is such, feelings turn to dust Are there tears enough to wash all
of us? When I need a friend, here you are again You let me comfort you like
only lovers do
(Half Chorus)
As the birthdays come and go The more I understand, the less I know As the
birthdays come and go Only one thing I know
(Chorus)
